Week 4 update

-

Hi everyone, here is my week 4 update!

Instead of making the cheesecake, I made chocolate chip cookies with a new recipe, they were so good. I have never made anything with brown butter before and I don't think I will ever make cookies another way. The recipe is here...

I was also able to post a couple of recipes from last week that were super yummy.

When making the cookies I was won over by the picture I found which looked absolutely delicious, I also never knew what brown butter was before and after making these cookies they were unreal, I think I would have bought a better quality chocolate chip though if I wanted them to get as melty as they do in the photo.
Something that I am having trouble with still is going to the grocery store in order to get items for my recipes, I am trying my best to use recipes that involve things I already have at home so I am going to keep with that until I am able to go to the grocery store more freely.
Something that I want to make this week is a recreation of one of my favorite things to get for lunch, at Brock there is a restaurant called Hopscotch and they have a bowl called a "Lucha Libre Bowl" and it is one of my favorite things to eat. It is super yummy and if I can find everything that goes in it I will post that when I make it!

I found this recipe for the bowl so I am going to try and follow it as much as I can... when I get this bowl I sub the chicken for falafels which are so yummy so I will be doing that as well. I also do NOT like cilantro so I will not add that.

Welcome readers! This blog is being created for a course I am taking at University. The purpose of my blog is going to be creating a genius hour project, this blog will be focused on cooking recipes that are vegetarian, and trying to improve my ability to cook. My goal is to create a project that people will find helpful and useful. This blog will include photos of the food I make, the recipes that I used, and how my experience cooking was! My progress will be measured through the new and fun recipes I make, and the progress I make through the completion of this project; further, I am interested to see if any of the new recipes will make it into my regular cooking routine.   Something I struggled with when I went to university was the lack of options I was able to have as a vegetarian when I needed to eat. I lived in a residence that did not have a kitchen and therefore I was able to eat what was provided in the cafeteria. I ended up becoming extremely sick because of the lack...

 I had this one time when I went to a Thai restaurant with my Dad and Grandma for lunch and immediately went home to find the recipe online, since then it has become one of my favorite soups. My only struggle with it is one of the ingredients is extraordinarily hard to find.. If you can find it though, make this soup it is SO good. The recipe that I use is from Tasty but I make a few modifications to it based on what I have in my kitchen. Ingredients for 4 servings 2 stalks lemongrass 2 thai red chili peppers, sliced ( I sub with siracha) 3 cloves garlic, minced 1 tablespoon galangal, minced ( I sub ginger) 1 tablespoon refined coconut oil 5 cups vegetable broth (1.2 L) 1 large tomato, diced 5 lime leaves 1 cup coconut milk (240 mL) 2 tablespoons soy sauce 7 oz extra firm tofu (200 g) , cubed 6 oz cremini mushroom (165 g) , sliced ¼ cup lime juice 1 tablespoon agave salt, to taste T...
